Family SCIOMYZID^E 



Fig. 41. Sepedon pacifica Cresson. 



In these flies the head is short and broad and the face 

 more or less retreating. The wings are long and are often 

 spotted. The adults can be collected along the banks of 

 small streams and in marsh and meadow land. The Tetan- 

 oceridae are set aside in a separate family by some authors 

 but they seem to be quite closely related. In flies of the 

 genus Tetanocera the antennae are very long and the wings 

 usually pictured.
